Thanks for your quick response...Goodmorning Alanna<br /><br />Thanks for your quick response. Looking forward to trying again this evening. (Last night my wok came to the rescue).<br /><br />Cooking books are notorious for errata, despite editors/testers etc. I find it amazing how few editing oversights there are when it comes to the food blogs I follow. All the work you put in to creating and maintaining this wonderful resource is really, really appreciated, I often check in for ideas.<br /><br />Regards, RobynRobynhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12252225663784285026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11944565.post-48130570662864863532012-09-05T08:43:40.354-05:002012-09-05T08:43:40.354-05:00Robyn ~ Ack!!

Thank you so much for letting me know, the instructions did NOT say to put the sugar and salt into the microwave with the cabbage and broccoli, it&#39;s the combination that makes the cabbage express all its liquid. I am so sorry, I hope the coleslaw isn&#39;t a total &quot;bust&quot; without this. And I SO appreciate your taking the time to let me know, it thrills me completely when someone is &quot;called&quot; to cook one of my recipes &quot;right now&quot; and can, because the ingredients are already on hand. I really strive for this! <br /><br />On the timing, no I checked carefully again, there are no steps missing. I think you must just work more quickly than I do! I&#39;m always measuring and thinking when I cook, I like to think that this means I don&#39;t mislead cooks with how long something will take, at least on the short side. <br /><br />Sandy ~ Oh you cheered up MY day, thank you so much for the kind note. If you happened to print the recipe before I made the correction above in my note to Robyn, please take heed! </i>Alanna Kellogghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12869948243694610558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11944565.post-80827723121768089312012-09-05T08:20:22.743-05:002012-09-05T08:20:22.743-05:00Oh, and PS, your food blog is my all time favorite...Oh, and PS, your food blog is my all time favorite!

Just arrived at work, made morning coffee and before the real work begins, popped in to read email, and here your recipe was.

Spring is peeping at us &amp; within a ...Hi Alanna<br /><br />Spring is peeping at us &amp; within a couple of weeks we can look forward to asparagus but for now this looked just the thing to satisfy the need for salad but with &#39;winter&#39; veg.<br /><br />Tried making just now, but.... I&#39;m thinking I haven&#39;t understood the method. While the cabbage /broccoli combo wilted in the microwave as indicated, there was no fluid released, and spinning didn&#39;t help either.<br /><br />So I got to thinking maybe the initial measures of sugar and salt should have been massaged into the greens the way I do when I&#39;m prepping daikon/carrot for Vietnamese pickles. The only mention in the method for the use of sugar and salt I can find is in adjusting for taste at the end.<br /><br />The other hint that I&#39;m not getting something, is the time indicated. Get stuff out, mix up dressing, chop vegies, microwave, salad spin, combine everything. I reckon that is 15 minutes tops for me plus 15 min chill time brings total to 30 minutes and yet the prep time is indicated as 40 minutes with time to table 60 minutes......Is there another step?<br /><br />I&#39;m keen to try again, so when you have a moment, would you mind putting me straight , please.<br /><br />Thanks as always for this motivating blog.<br /><br />Robyn<br />Robynhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12252225663784285026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11944565.post-71285991437656009792012-09-04T21:30:16.374-05:002012-09-04T21:30:16.374-05:00Heather ~ Ah, I didn&#39;t think that &quot;kohl&q...<i>Heather ~ Ah, I didn&#39;t think that &quot;kohl&quot; or &quot;cole&quot; might be a translation, cool! <br /><br />As for the ^&amp;%$I &quot;captchas&quot; that flummox human beings but still let the spammers through, I just turned it off. Thanks for the reminder, I had huge frustration the other day trying to comment somewhere on my phone and finally gave up. No more capchas! Damn the spammers! PS It&#39;s the standard Google captcha, but Google&#39;s getting less friendly than they once were about such things.

I had to try six combinations before I guessed one right, and the audio was completely garbled. Is there another verification service you could use? I am not a half-blind fuddy-duddy, either- I&#39;m not yet forty and I use Internet verifications all the time. This is just a bad one.
